Contacting recent settlers half a planet away may be the only hope for a rebellious young man's failing colony, though the conflicts they bring from Earth could be deadly.
Jake is born into a dying colony, abandoned by Earth. Sickness plagues his family, and Mars yields none of the minerals they need to survive. A second colony arrives half a planet away, but visiting the newcomers is more perilous than he imagined.
The newcomers hold the key to survival, if only Jake can understand the conflicts among these Earth-borns from China and Africa. They bring advanced technologies and tantalizing possibilities. But if they forge ties with Jake, they'll defy their masters on Earth and perhaps be abandoned too.
Watch the sun rise through the thin Martian atmosphere and smell the acrid soil that clings to surface suits. Join Jake on adventures far from his home habitat.
From NASA to Mars One and SpaceX, real-life visionaries plan to settle on Mars. You can go today in science fiction. Each book in the series joins a different settler struggling to build a life on Mars.
